Classic Elite Yarns Verde Collection Seedling

Classic Elite Yarns Verde Collection Seedling features the same texture and softness as Sprout, but in a lighter weight. This machine washable organic cotton is available in a range of fun colors. Made in Peru.

Surprisingly, despite the yarn's construction, the yarn was NOT at all splitty. It is very soft and it's slightly nubby quality is attractive. The main concern is that this yarn is so soft, a sweater knit from it does not have enough "structure" and stiffness to hold its shape. I would think it would be good for baby clothes.

The stitch definition is great with this yarn. Very soft and works up well. I chose a soft brown for child's sweater and it looks great for my grandson.

Service and delivery comments:

Delivery was quick and without any problems. I have ordered much from this site and have never had a problem -- customer service has been very helpful with any questions I might have had. Highly recommend this company.

I am making an infinity scarf using seven different colors of this yarn. The pattern is directly from the Classic Elite Scarves, Shawls and Wraps and I used six of the colors used in the book and chose one of my own. The colors are vibrant and nicely saturated. It feels good to the touch and is really a joy to knit with. It's the first time I've purchased this particular yarn, but I'm certain that it won't be the last. I reccommend it highly.

I used this for a beret style baby hat, but the texture of the yarn just wasn't quite right for the final product. It is very soft and nice to work with, but I guess I prefer yarns that are plied rather than wrapped like this one. But if I found the right project, I would buy this again.
